Default US Memorial Day Calendar

Here is official Federal Holiday Government calendar http://www.opm.gov/operating_status_...edhol/2010.asp

Memorial Day 2010 will be Monday May 31st 2010

Unfortunately it is one of the US holidays which as been made a floating holiday to always fall on a Monday. It is always celebrated on the last Monday of May.



Interestingly they have left Veterans Day as always being November 11th.

Was not sure if it was a 'floating' day or a fixed day Hanno. Thanks for the confirmation.

Well....it does have a floating part to it....it's only a nationwide day off once every five years....so people with our hobby and interest have to take the day off to attend celebrations
